This program provides a valuable service to Mental Health Services section. The interns are graduate-level students of Psychology or Counseling from local universities who work for academic credit only.  They are recruited, oriented, trained, supervised, and evaluated by the chief of Mental Health Services. Most student interns remain at Montgomery County Correctional Facility (MCCF) for an academic year and are assigned an average of six to ten individuals weekly either for individual counseling or group therapy.
